Law & Order Returns February; This Is Us, More: NBC Midseason Schedule
NBC has released its midseason schedule, and there is definitely some news that This Is Us viewers and fans of the "Law & Order" franchise will want to know about. In addition, we have return details for Kenan, Young Rock, Mr. Mayor, the "Chicago" shows, new drama The Endgame, new comedies American Auto and Grand Crew, Eurovision-themed reality competition series American Song Contest, and the Renée Zellweger-starring limited series The Thing About Pam. The first thing of note: the schedule below is split between pre and post-Olympics scheduling. Second, that February 24th brings back Law & Order after more than a decade, giving NBC and franchise creator Dick Wolf the run of Thursday night's prime time schedule. As such, The Blacklist will return to its 8 p.m. Friday slot beginning February 25.
